In 1930s France, a free-spirited mother undertakes to derail her
very proper daughter's engagement Julia Packett has barely laid
eyes on her daughter, Susan, since leaving her with her well-heeled
in-laws following the loss of her husband in World War I. Now
thirty-seven, Julia's lack of prospects hasn't dimmed her spirit or
her appetite for life. But when Susan asks her to come to France
for the summer to persuade her grandmother to allow her to marry,
she sets sail with the noblest intentions of acting the paragon of
motherhood. At her mother-in-law's vacation villa in Haute Savoie,
however, Julia sees that her priggish but lovely daughter is
completely mismatched with a man much more suited to herself: a
charming, clever playboy. The arrival of Susan's legal guardian,
the distinguished Sir William Waring, further complicates the
situation. Soon Julia's efforts to pass herself off as a lady and
secure her daughter's happiness spin out of control, leading to
romantic entanglements and madcap adventures that will challenge
preconceived notions about the ultimate compatibility of any two
people who fall in love.
